NAME
mha-decode - Decode MIME messages
SYNOPSIS
mha-decode [options] mailfolder ...
mha-decode [options] -single msg.822
DESCRIPTION
mha-decode is a
utility program that is part of the MHonArc software
package. mha-decode provides basic MIME decoding for mail messages.
If given mail folders as input, all messages within in the mail
folders will be decoded. All message parts are written to files. If
a filename is specified for a message part, that filename will be
used when writing the part to a file. If no filename is specified
in the message, a unique name will be used based upon the
content-type of the message part.
A single message can be decoded by using the "-single"
option.
OPTIONS
mha-decode takes
options available to mhonarc, but only those options affect
parsing of mail folders are applicable: "-conlen",
"-mhpattern", "-msgsep", "-noconlen",
"-outdir", "-perlinc", "-rcfile",
"-single", "-umask".
Also, mha-decode supports the following additional
options:
- -dcd-digest
- Run in message digest mode. When this
option is specified, any embedded "message/rfc822" and
"message/news" parts will be saved instead of recursively
decoding any parts contained within.
